Definitions

  • This invention relates to the provision of features and capabilities to telecommunications customers on an on-demand or an as-needed basis.
  • Custom features such as conference calling, are provided as additional subscription services to telephone customers.
  • Feature availability at a customer's terminal port is identified to the telephone system by a block of information residing in the switching system which services that terminal port.
  • a problem of the prior art is that features were not directly modifiable by customers; customers were required to contact a phone company representative to pre-register a custom feature. Otherwise, the custom feature would not be available for the customer's use as part of the customer's regular telephone service.
  • the above problems are solved and an advance is made over the prior art in accordance with our invention wherein a telecommunications customer is granted use of a desired feature contemporaneous with request. This is accomplished by the customer using a telephone keypad and/or handset, modifying feature keys which exist in the configuration of data in a static data block.
  • the static data block is a block of information which defines and controls a call process in the telephone network for calls placed from the associated terminal port. While we refer to the block as a static data block, the term also encompasses dynamic data which is more transient in nature but can also define and control, in whole or in part, a call process.
  • a static data block may be defined in various ways. For example, it can be an array configuration in which the value of an element being 1 or 0 defines a feature being available or unavailable. It can be a list of items in which the feature of interest appears or does not appear as a member of the list. Further, it may be defined as a data set, such as a matrix, in which the feature is or is not a member of the set. And it can still further be defined as an encrypted group identifier or bit map. In each variation on the form taken by the static data block, the static data block may be resident on the telecommunications network or carried by the subscriber, for example, as an encryption on a credit card or smart card.
  • Newly defined feature keys could, as examples, direct the telephone network to permit or deny access to a desired feature; to do so on a one-time basis or on a subscribed basis; and track unit/time charges and apply them to the customer's account.
  • custom features are conference calling, call forwarding for incoming calls to the customer's terminal port; call waiting; automatic call back; and access to intelligent peripherals for, for example, voice dialing, abbreviated dialing (speed dialing), special billing, and priority calling.
  • this arrangement permits a caller to select on an on-demand or as-needed basis one or more custom features and receive the service without delay, without prior subscription and without operator intervention.
  • permission to modify the static data block for the terminal port is only granted if the caller dials an appropriate personal identification number or uses some other authentication procedure; this ensures that the caller is authorized to use the services granted the terminal port and is authorized to extend those services to include additional custom features.
  • a customer can modify feature keys by keypad and/or voice entries at a terminal port telephone to activate and use an unsubscribed feature.
  • Ports 1 and 2 are additional terminal ports for which additional calling features can likewise be provided on demand.
  • feature key selection results in change of controlling key configuration in the static data block.
  • a customer can access features on a one-time basis or activate a subscription for the service.
  • a customer can access features from a region of the network which is not part of the region in the central switch for the caller's terminal port which defines subscribed features for the port.
  • a custom feature can be terminated either through active request by the customer or automatically, consistent with parameters defined by the customer and/or the service provided.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the basic operation of applicant's invention.
  • FIGS. 2, 2A-2D are a flow diagram illustrating a method of implementing applicant's invention.
  • FIG. 3 is a partial decision tree schematic illustrating choices in feature selection to define feature keys to the static data block.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the basic operation of applicant's invention.
  • Station 1 is one of many stations connected to local switching system 5.
  • station 1 is connected at terminal port 3 over line 4 to switching system 5 which is part of a larger public switched telephone network 6.
  • Line 4 may be a physical wire line or a wireless transmission path or a combination of signal carriers.
  • Local switching system 5 is controlled by one or more processors (not shown), each operating under the control of one or more stored programs.
  • a call process 32 When a call is originated from a terminal port, for example terminal port 3, that terminal port will be assigned a call process 32, i.e., a block of memory for controlling the call.
  • the call process 32 accesses the static data block 9 for terminal port 3 in switch static data block 7 of the local switching system 5.
  • the key configuration in static data block 9 defines the available service for terminal port 3, of which a subgroup determines custom feature service availability. If the static data items 9 do not include a key configuration for a certain custom feature, access to the feature will be denied to the caller from port 3. While most of the items in static data block 9 are administered by an operating telephone company and cannot be modified by callers, there are some static data items, which I refer to as dialable static data items 11, which can be modified in response to signals provided from the associated terminal port. Modification is by selection of feature keys which reconfigure the dialable static data items and by creation of a shadow static data block having a desired key configuration cast over the actual static data block key configuration.
  • the configurations in dialable static data items 11 are changed, and the menu of custom features is altered allowing the call process to access and provide as part of the service to the terminal port desired custom features, including the addition of new features, modification of existing features, and deletion of features. Access to the change process can be provided to a caller in a variety of ways.
  • the customer can subscribe to a calling feature, let us call it the Call Feature (CF), the keys for which form part of the static data items configuration for station 1 and hence its terminal port 3.
  • the CF provides a caller from terminal port 3, access to a change process for static data block 7, and affecting specifically sub-block 9 and its dialable static data items 11.
  • a telecommunications service provider e.g. the local telephone company or the long distance carrier, has a dialable processor which a caller accesses using a dialed access number. Once dialed, the processor provides a caller access to a change process for dialable static data items 11 for the terminal port in use.
  • the caller's terminal port 3 is connected as part of call process 32 through public switched telephone network 5 to static data block 9 and to Feature Processor 51.
  • the access request and the feature processor 51 e.g., a processor in the local switching system or, as illustrated, another telephone system processor, connects to a Feature Access Announcement Frame (FAAF) 34.
  • the access request is recognized and a control process, the Front-End Authorization Access Process (FEAAP) 36, is assigned to control the FAAF 34.
  • the FEAAP 36 performs a verification of the caller's personal identification code to confirm that the caller is authorized to request and use additional custom features.
  • an Update Process (UP) 38 is linked with the FAAF 34, the call process 32, and static data block 7.
  • UP 38 includes a control process for communicating between call process 32 and the dialable static data items 11.
  • the caller inputs using the telephone instrument at the terminal port 3 dialed or voice signals through a connection to a digit and/or voice receiver (not shown) which are communicated to the UP. Based upon the signal provided through call process 32 to the UP 38, the UP 38 creates new feature keys, that is, a revised configuration for dialable static data items 11, to modify the custom features available to terminal port 3.
  • the dialable static data items 11 also include static data items which identify feature parameters, for example, whether the feature must be subscribed for or may be elected on an on-demand basis, whether the feature can be billed as a one-time fee or on a unit/time charge, and the events which may or will cause termination of feature availability, which we refer to as termination triggers.
  • the feature processor 51 creates feature modification by either storage in memory 40 of the original feature configuration and updating the feature keys in the configuration of the actual dialable static data items 11; or by creation of a shadow static data block and controller in memory 40 which sits on top of the call process 32 to allocate and manage the telephone network hardware and software as though the shadow static data block were the actual static data block 9 for terminal port 3 by preempting, in whole or in part, the telephone network's system reference to the actual data block 9 and the resident feature key configuration.
  • the shadow static data block casts a feature and control shadow over the actual static data block, which covers the actual static data block fully or partially, depending upon the amount of control and the number of features which are to be provided by the shadow static data block.
  • the feature processor 51 activates in the phone system the termination triggers associated with the elected feature(s). As mentioned above, termination triggers cause the control process 32 to again access the UP 38 and reset feature keys configuration in actual static data items 11 or remove the shadow static data block from casting its control and feature shadow over the actual static data block 9 so that feature availability and control of subsequent call processes return to the actual static data block 9.
  • the trigger can be line 4 ceasing to carry traffic, i.e., the caller completes the call and hangs up.
  • the trigger can include a timer which, upon the expiration of a preset period of time or passage of a date, activates the trigger.
  • FIG. 2 is an illustration of on-demand access.
  • the caller dials an access number (action block 201).
  • the call is routed to a processor in the telephone system (action block 202) which provides access to one or more custom features.
  • the processor connects the caller to a Feature Access Announcement Frame (FAAF) and the Front-End Authorization Access Process (FEAAP) (action block 203).
  • FAF Feature Access Announcement Frame
  • FEAAP Front-End Authorization Access Process
  • the access number includes the caller's personal identification number (PIN)
  • PIN personal identification number
  • the FEAAP performs a validation of the PIN.
  • the PIN is requested to verify the authenticity of the request, but verification can also be accomplished by other means, e.g., matching the caller's voice against a prerecorded voice print.
  • the FAAF prompts the caller to provide the caller's PIN (action block 204), following which the FEAAP performs validation of the PIN (action block 205). If the FEAAP confirms that the caller is permitted access, the feature processor provides access for the call to proceed (action block 207) as shown in FIG. 2b. If not, a termination process is performed, which may include an announcement to the caller and the switch terminating access (action block 206) as shown in FIG. 2a.
  • the FAAF responds with a sign-off treatment (action block 208) which may include some type of announcement and the switch terminating access. If the caller confirms custom features access is desired, the FAAF links to both the dialable static data items for the terminal port (action block 209) from which the call originates and an Update Process (UP) (action block 210). With linkage confirmation, the UP accesses the existing feature keys defined by the dialable static data items configuration associated with the port (action block 211).
  • UP Update Process
  • the UP controls the FAAF to prompt the caller to serially select from a series of options (action block 212) and the UP obtains the signal responses which it manipulates to create interim feature keys (action block 213).
  • query/response pattern is: "If you wish to activate call forwarding, press or say 1; if you wish to activate call waiting, press or say 2, -(2)- If you wish call waiting for all phones in your station press or say 1; if you wish call waiting for only the phone from which you are calling, press or say 2. -(2)-.”
  • a decision tree example is provided in FIG. 3. Completing the decision tree through to the end of its branch, the FAAF queries the caller whether the new feature selection is accepted. If the caller does not respond or provides a negative response, a reconciliation treatment is performed (action block 214) which may include, among others, any or all of the following: some type of announcement followed by prompted confirmation of each decision in the decision tree; erasure of the selections and the associated interim feature keys and reinitiation of the prompting/response process against the decision tree; the switch terminating the call.
  • the UP Upon reaching the termination of the decision tree branch(es), the UP performs a validation on the features and variables selected (action block 215) and the FAAF prompts the caller whether additional features are desired. The process repeats for each custom feature desired (action block 216) as shown in FIG. 2c.
  • the UP translates the interim feature keys into new feature keys corresponding to the Custom Feature selections made by the caller and either: (i) creates a shadow static data block and controller on top of and casting a shadow fully or partially over the call process (action block 218) to allocate/manage the system hardware and software as though the shadow static data block items were the part of the actual static data block for the terminal port (action block 219) by filtering the system reference to the actual data block through the static data block; or (ii) stores the original feature keys or static data block items configuration (action block 220) and resets the dialable static data items to the new feature keys configuration (action block 221).
  • the FAAF provides the caller with instructions for use of the now available feature(s), including how the feature(s) will be terminated (action block 222) and the feature processor establishes access for the associated hardware and software through the call process for the additional custom features selected and establishes termination triggers in the call process (action block 223).
  • the caller then proceeds with conventional call processing (action block 224) and the network posts the system charges to the caller's account (action block 225).
  • the call process Upon activation of a termination trigger, illustrated by the decision block so labeled, the call process accesses the UP which either: (i) removes the shadow static data block (action block 227) or (ii) retrieves the original key configuration and resets the key configuration in the static data block to the original settings (action block 228).
  • termination triggers include cessation of traffic on the line serving the port, or replacing the handset on the switchhook, or the passage of a period of time. In some instances a termination trigger may not be set permitting the feature to remain active until the caller or the service provider actively modifies feature availability.
  • action block 229 the caller's account is accessed and appropriate entries are posted including any one-time charges, subscription charges and unit/time charges incurred as a result of electing any custom feature or its use. Because posting can occur at different times in a call process, it is shown both as action block 225 and action block 229.
  • the caller may elect to add a custom feature to his service not as a one-time usage, but as a subscribed feature, as part of the resetting of the dialable static data items or feature keys for the port. It is also possible with our invention to terminate subscribed custom features in the same fashion as they are added, the UP treating the termination of a subscribed feature as an option selected in the decision tree for the feature.
  • our invention anticipates that resetting of the feature keys in the static data block may not be desired. Consequently, an alternative is provided in our invention in which a shadow static data block and controller, containing the desired and designated feature keys, is created which controls the call process. We see this most useful with on-demand election of a custom feature. There is no need to place the actual static key configuration in memory nor is there any need to reset the key configuration following call termination. Said another way, the caller's terminal port is bootstrapped by the key features resident in a shadow terminal controller which exist only so long as the on-demand call.
  • Feature Processors can be purpose-built to simplify use and access, for example by constructing the access code to be a mnemonic of the feature and having only one feature available from that feature processor.
  • a caller can, without reference to a directory because of the caller's easy recall of the mnemonic, dial a desired feature without regard to the location of the feature processor with respect to the local switching system or the features accessible through the actual configuration of the terminal port's static data block; the FEAAP confirms authorization, for example, that a valid calling card number is presented, and the FAAF provides a simple prompt announcement of the calling feature reached and instructions on how to proceed with the call.
  • the UP creates a shadow static data block and controller on top of the call process to allocate and manage the public switched telephone network hardware and software as though the actual static data block configuration had provided access to the feature.
